Hey I'm on TV (for like a second at a time distanced by 20 minute gaps :P)

Hey, British GTMers

Anyone planning on going to CarFest South this weekend?
Too busy making a guitar :P
Finished routing the neck and pickups. Bridge, ferrules, and electronics to come.

Also, I suspect that TAN could easy have steered bots into walls, hazards and more. In many ways, if your dissing TAN, your dissing Mantis as well, which is a very similar bot in terms of operation.
Thing is though, it didn't. Cheap as Chips' strategy was always the same- grab, pit, rob fight of any potential for entertainment.
 
I do like Mantis though, mainly due to the clever engineering behind it that allowed it to both lift and hold onto opponents, allowing it to carry them around ala Complete Control. That was actually somewhat entertaining to watch, and it actually did things other than being entirely dependent on the Pit to do anything.
Then blame who was driving for not quite fitting your entertainment schedule rather than winning (and let's not forget, there was a cash prize for the 7th wars), not the bot..
Also, I find TaN entertaining. Sorry if it doesn't for you but I enjoyed watching bots get pitted in such an effective fashion. It may have been predictable, but hey, sometimes predictable is fun.

Also, in a similar way, I agree with Mr. As on OOTA'ing. It was used to a ridiculous extent in the 7th wars and I was thankful that there was a heat where the generic flipper didn't win (unlike with Thermidor, Atomic, M2, Firestorm, The Grim Reaper, Raging Nightmare, St. Aggro, Gravity, Dantomkia, Bulldog Breed, and Mute. ...You see my point? Only 5 of the 16 semi final bots weren't flippers:P).

Not so much the fact that he likes it (I mean, everyone's entitled to an opinion), and I'd have been alright with it had it just kept the first part, but it's more that second capitalised TAN FOREVAR bit that I quoted that irked me a little.
But TAN is a much better bot that Chaos 2 in terms of engineering anyway.
No. I fail to see how what is essentially a giant pair of tongs on wheels can even compare.
A reliable, fast, invertible, NOT UNDERWEIGHT, endurance, and better armored pair of tongs can most certainly compare. It's just more up to date than Chaos 2 and doesn't lose its effectiveness half way through a fight due to extremely limited C02 supply.
Also, I suspect that TAN could easy have steered bots into walls, hazards and more. In many ways, if your dissing TAN, your dissing Mantis as well, which is a very similar bot in terms of operation.

i think i'm allowed to say fag since i'm uhh bisexual, and i see no problem with it sooooooooooooooooooooooo
Well just keep in mind that you are insulting yourself more than anyone else by using that term offensively.
It would be somewhat similar if I made British stereotypes against GF since I live in East Anglia so have a pretty stereotypical "posh" British accent.

Bisexuals are just wishy-washy fags who are still half in the closet.

noodle was funny you fags can't take a joke without getting analragnarok'd and it's pretty lelzy
we don't take REALLY AWFUL AND INDEED ACTUALLY RATHER SH*TE jokes well
plus he wanted to get banned anyway so it all worked out in the end
Why is Enigma using "fags" as an insult again?

And flash spamming isn't exactly humorous.
Because he's culturally undereducated, presumably.
As for the latter point, I agree.

Because he's from the US, right?
Nah, twas' an attempt at irony since Enigma is bi.

My favorite bots are probably TaN (legitimately, I really liked the design), Mantis, Complete Control, Tetanus Booster, and Thermidor 2.

TAN FOREVER
TAN > CHAOS 2

So Nary, have you heard about that new Judge Dredd film that's coming out in September?
It needs Anthrax - I Am The Law as the theme song or I'm boycotting it.

JONZU LEAVE
k

*Leaves GTM*
see you in a few hours
Can't say is that sarcasm or just stupid.

Neither, it is just taking the mick out of how many times you have claimed to leave and then returned (either through posting, or still being online) not too long after the leaving post/thread.

As for an on-topic post, I am honestly not sure what I would put in the hall of shame, it is difficult to say something that hasn't been said already, and that doesn't seem to be jumping on an obvious bandwagon of 'hurr durr song/album/band X is rubbish'
Just vote Radikult for worst song and The Unspoken King for worst album since it's both true and would get the song inducted.

I recently dug up my copy of RCT2. Does anyone have tips on building a coaster, aside from putting scenery near it?
Try and make it like real life coasters. have a dive round Coasterforce for ideas of coasters for inspiration, or check New Element for examples.

Why not just use 2 baseplate anchors for the drive? It would be much lighter.

Who was Bill the Spam Slayer?
He was a little stick-figure character I made up as a joke against him and some other morons some time ago (He's the little guy on the right in "**** You Bill"), whom they disliked.
How did you manage to piss them off so bad? And why?

The Big Lebowski is now my no. 12 film of all time. Imagine my other films are in different positions accordingly.
